iiiii want candy

for me, for you recently blogged about the appearance of candy stripe yumminess in designs all over the place. i'm loving it as well!

i can't decide what i'm craving more, that purse or one of these:

Fireworks Shmireworks

I don't know if this is old news, but I read that in some Asian countries they release sky lanterns for good luck (as you watch your problems and worries float away). How cute would it be, then, to release these at your wedding or some other celebration? Guests could write happy messages and send them off into the sky.

Lovely.

delicious AND cute? signmeup.

bento: a meal, usually served in a lacquered or elaborately decorated box that is divided into sections for holding individual portions of food.


cooking cute: a website, certain to cause your mouth to water and your cute-o-meter to spring to life



the website lets you know more about the tasty art of bento as well as tons of recipes and a gallery of ngoc's work, organized by date. i wonder if she knows about spicy cream chicken.......

vh1's flavor of paper

I wanted to check out a wallpaper showroom in NY while I was there, but I forgot :x. OH WELL, one day, but for now enjoy some samples of Flavor Paper!


The banana wallpaper is scratch-n-sniff :D

Flavor Paper

I think you know what I'm about to say

Before this movie, my mood (out of 10) was a 7. Mostly that high b/c I was about to see this movie, haha. After the movie.... oh, you know, I was at like a 25. Now don't get me wrong, the movie was RIDICULOUS. Like, laugh out loud funny at some of the awfulness. But beyond all of that, I mean come on. Ridiculousness. ABBA songs. Bad love story. The most beautiful movie setting I have EVER SEEN (Greece). Yeah, that makes for a pretty cute and dare I say AWESOME movie.

If you do see it, I warn you in advance: you will have the urge to break into song and dance, which my friends and I appropriately did as we exited the theatre.

Mamma mia.... here I go again....

love is a mixtape

now i'm familiar with several playlist-generating sites and use certain ones quite frequently to check out a song or make a playlist to help me get through the day. however, i am now completely sold on mixwit as it lets you customize your mix "tape" till your heart's content or use one of their sweet preloaded skins. enjoy!

oh the many uses....

....of chalkboard paint!

this is exactly what i need. more places to put to-do lists.

wonderland

this is beyond amazing. korean artist yeondoo jung collected over 1,000 pieces of artwork from kindergarteners and selected 17 to bring to life. the attention to detail is uncanny as everything from body language, fashion, landscape and makeup is recreated life-size. beautiful.

i am moved and inspired by these. check out the rest here.

get excited

This website just got me PUMPED for breakfast again. Jen takes pictures of her breakfast every morning, and I must say her food looks adorable, and well, delicious :)

big or little.... I don't care, just gimme!

Why is it that anything miniaturized or blown-up is immediately cute beyond belief? Take this camera, for example. Replica of the old school camera from the 1920s, but digital. Too damn cute.


Also from the same company, this bad boy:


See these and more at urbn (pfft, where else) or Minox itself.
